Those cant be botherd periods

What do you guys do when you simply dont have the energy/dont need the money and find it so much effort to get the day done as no motivation to get it done? Me i simply go home and and say ill play catchup tomorrow which never happens, sometimes it can get me weeks behind, Motivation is lacking for me right now...need it to hurry back.

I'm saving up for an M4 at the moment, that's all the motivation I need ;)

Spend all your money and skint yourself. Lack of motivation turns into desperation to get working ;D

Well in my case, the missis just spent most of my money on new furniture, new power recliner sofas, new beds for us and the kids and a new dining room table.
Add that to the thousands spent on Xmas and the fact I haven't worked for 2 weeks, the bank account is looking a bit empty :-X
I can't be bothered to get back to work tomorrow, but fck me have I got to!

Oh, I'm like that. Although I need the money!
My plan is to keep moving and stop thinking.
Not working though.

I'd love my own motorway, too!
Then all you need is a nice BMW to drive on it.

Nice motor. Good luck and I'm sure you'll get it.

Same here.  When in those moods, not much gets done and then i regret it when it hinders my schedule for next couple of days. So head phones go in and plough through

this very rarely happens these days for me.you can never have enough money IMO. ;D

if im feeling run down and tired ill take a day or two off.

i feel good at the moment as had 11 days off over xmas.

if motivation is really lacking then even getting out and working say 3 hours a day is better than taking the whole day off.just cut your working day in half for a few days.thats what i do.

also im virtually part time these days so i dont lack motivation very often.couple that with keeping fit and a good healthy lifestyle
it works for me.   
price higher/work harder!

Happened again today, started at 7am on an office clean then did 17 fronts but couldn't find the energy to do anymore so sacked the other 13 planned fronts off and was home for 12 which now means ill be playing catchup tomorrow on todays work as well as finding time to do some of last weeks!. Home, eaten and showered and now thinking what an idiot....i should have spent an extra few hours on the glass.
Im not going to allow it again! Man up time, catch up on everything this week doing a Saturday also so ready and back on track for Monday.  I dont usually lose my Mojo so will beat this lazy reckless attitude i have at present.

We all go through it Mick, i only started back today from Christmas as i like a good bit of time off over the holidays simply to just do nothing and completely switch off from work, if i get like you are i simply have a few days off  or whatever but i think when you do that you have to totally switch off from work mode and anything to do with it. Unless your desperate to keep earning then just take a few days off, as you said money not an issue and the windows are still going to be there when you start again.
I find that helps me but like i said you have to totally switch off from work mode and anything to do with window cleaning.

Why don't you employ? Then you'd only have to work half days? I know you've got the work.

Don't worry about it, I sacked today off too. I tell the taxman I only work sixteen hours a week anyway so it's good to leave the van on the drive once in a while. Mrs wants me to take tomorrow off too but I find work less tiring these days.

I can't get enough
More work the better for me.
I live in the West Country (Cornwall) were it rains quite a lot so I fill my boots when I can.

I get it man.
But I do as others take some time off, and totally switch off or do a little bit everyday till you start picking bk up and don't give yerself a hard time about it. Be grateful you got such a cushy number that u can do that.
